Disastrous Fire.
A few minutes after 2 o’clock, Sunday morn
ing, a fire broke out in the rear part of the store
occupied by Mr. W. D. R. Millar, 157 Bay street,
immediately east of the City Hotel building, as
a general railroad supply establishment. The
policeman on that beat, in making his rounds,
detected a smell as of something burning, and,
on makmg a search, discovered the fire ns above
stated, and gave the alarm. No cause is assign
ed as to the origin of the lire, but it is generally
supposed to have been caused by the spouta
neous combustion of the highly inflammable
material which composed a portion of the stock
of Mr. Millar. On the alarm being sounded
from the Exchange steeple, the engines were
promptly on the ground—the Washington, or
“ Mickey Frees,” as usual, managing to play
the first stream. Such an intense heat was
thrown from the building occupied by Mr. Mil
lar, caused by the burning of lubricatiug oils,
&c., that the firemen were unable to approach
very near the Are.
The entire stock of Mr. Millar, valued at
SIO,OOO, was destroyed; insured for $5,000 in
the “Southern Mutual,” of which Thomas H.
Harden, Esq., is agent. Ttie only thing saved
by Mr. M. was his safe, containing his books
and papers, and a few rolls of packing. About
$6,000 worth of goods are uow on the way to
Mr. M. from Baltimore, and by their fortunate
non-arrival he has saved that much, which
would have undoubtedly been likewise de
stroyed.
The front room in the second story of the
building, over the store of Mr. M., was occu
pied by Messrs. Mills, West & Tompkins as a
law office. They are enterprising young law
yers, and have met with a very severe loss—the
entire contents of the office, consisting of books,
lurniture, <fcp., bging destroyed, 'fljelr loss is
’estimate?! at h orn STjSOO to $1,200, exclusive.<it
furniture.
The rear portion of the second story was oc
cupied by Mr. Killoran as a carpenter shop.—
His family also occupied rooms on the third
floor. Mr. K., who is a poor man, lost every
thing, both in his carpenter shop and dwelling,
upon which there was no insurance.
The flames extended to the building adjoin
ing east, the lower story of whicli was occupied
by Mr. C. V. Hutchins as a graiu and feed store.
His stock was all damaged more or less. He
expects, however, to save a considerable por
tion which was stored in the cellar. He was
insured for $4,000 in the Putnam Fire Insur
ance Company of Hartford, of which Alexis
McNulty, Esq., is agent. The insurance will
wholly cover the loss.
Messrs. Jackson, Lawton & Basinger, who oc
copied rooms over the store of Mr. C. V.
Hutchins, lost all their office furniture, together
with their library, &c., which was one of the
most valuable law libraries in the city, and
upon which there was no insurance. Their
loss is estimated at about SB,OOO. Major Bas
inger’s private library, also destroyed, we are
informed was insured for SSOO in one of the
offices of which Mr. Robert H. Footman is
agent.
Mr. C. H. Morel, who occupied rooms above
the office of Messrs. Jackson, Lawton.& Basin
ger, was asleeD at the time the fire broke out,and
was awakened by Mr. Killoran, who was break
ing a way through his apartmeut. to net out.—
The smoke was so dense that Mr. Morel had
barely time to escape, saving only a few articles
of clothing. The entire contents of his room,
consisting of furniture, <fcc., was entirely de
stroyed. His loss is between five and six
hundred dollars.
A portion of the inner wall in the attic of the
City Hotel building was on fire several times,
but was extinguished by the exertions of occu
pants of the buildiug. The flames also extend
ed across Bay lane, and caught one of the rear
buildings of the Pulaski House ; the fire, how
ever, was extinguished without doing any fur
ther damage than burning several window
blinds.
The buildings destroyed were owned by
Solomon Cohen, Esq., and insured for $5,000
in the Queen Fire Insurance Company of Liver
pool and London, of which Robert H. Foot
man, Esq., is agent.
This is one of the most serious fires which
has occurred in Savannah for some time, and
but for the most strenuous of our
fireraeq it would have proved disastrous to the
whole block.
The two next adjoining buildings on the east
were occupied as wholesale liquor stores. Had
the flames extended to them, it would hardly
have been possible to check the conflagration
until it had reached Bull street. All the build
ings in the block are of brick, and the insur
ance upon those of Mr. Cohen’s, which were
destroyed, will not more than half meet the
expense of rebuilding.
The fire continued to burn nearly all the
morning, it being 11 o’clock when the last hose
carriage lelt the scene of conflagration.
The following is the letter which Berryer
wrote from his death bed to the Comte de
Cbambord: “O Monseigneur, O my King!
they tell me my last hour is at hand. I die
with the sorrow of not having witnessed the
triumph of your hereditary rights, consecra
ting the establishment and expansion of those
liberties which our country needs. I carry
these wishes up to heaven for your Majesty, for
her Majesty the Queen, for our beloved France!
That they be less unworthy of finding favor in
the Almighty, I depart from this life provided
with all the nids.of our blessed religion. Adieu,
sire; may heaven protect you and preserve
France! Your devoted and faithful subject,
“ Berryer.”
Devices of the Good.— There was present
at the recent opening bal masque of the opera,
in Paris, an American gentleman, who is op
posed to going to balls on Saturday night. He
is conscientious about this, and was much per
plexed as to how he should consistently attend
the ball in question. He was present and made
the following explanation : “ I have reflected
that, owing to the difference in time between
here aud New York—about six hours—l can
leave here at about 5 in the morning and not
infringe upon the Sabbath.” That -man ought
to be a small contributor to the Treasury con
science fund.
Locomotive Without Steam.—The New
York Sun says that Mr. Molrz, after eight
years’ labor, has produced a locomotive which
he believes will supersede the use of steam on
railroads, and relieve the public of the appre
hension of disastrous explosions. The ma
chine is set in motion by levers acting on an
eccentric, which moves the wheels of the en
giue. Balancing weights and springs seem to
supply the motive power. The model, which
is on exhibition in New York, cost the invent
or $13,000.
HURLEY’S AGUE TONIO.
PERFECTLY RELIABLE.
The only remedy for Chills and Fever or A ? te and
Fever that is or can be depended npon is Hurley’s
Ague Tonic. There have been thousands cured b>
using it who had tried the usual remedies without
-benefit; but in no case Has
Harley’s Ague Tonic
failed to effect a cure. All who have used it
cheerfully tell their afflicted friends of it, as a sure aDO
certain cure for chills and fever. Any one suflerice
from the chills would consult their own interest b>
sending to a drug store aud buying a bottle. It is
pleasant to take, compared with others, and will br
certain to cure all cases of fever and ague or chills anc
fever.

PURIFY YOUR BLOOD!
Hurley’s Sarsaparilla.
Is already recognized by the most eminent physicians
in all parts of the country, to be the most surprising
and effective remedy for certain diseases of whiftt
they have any knowledge.
All other Compounds or Syrups of this root have
hitherto failed to coipmand the sanction of the Facul
ty, because on being tested, they have been found tc
contain noxious ingredients, which neutralize the good
effects of the Sarsaparilla, and oftentimes injure the
health of the patient. It is not so with HORLKY’S
preparation.
This is the pure and genuine extract of the root, ana
will, on trial, he found to effect a certain and per
fect cure of the following complaints and diseases:
Affections of the Bones, Habitual Costiveness
Debility, Diseases of the Kidneys, Dyspep
sia, Erysepilas, Female Irregulari
ties, Fistula, all Skin Diseases,
Liver Complaint, Indiges
tion, Piles, Pulmonary

GrTTATSTO
TO TIIE
PLANTERS OF GEORGIA.
Guarantied to he equal to aur fertilizer heretofore
used, not excepting gmnine Peruvian Guano. By
various tests made by experienced planters of cotton,
it haß neen conclusively proven that an application,
pound for pound, alongside Peruvian, produces fully
as good results in favorable seasons, and in dry
weather the crop stands the drought much better. It
has also been demonstrated that in every case it, makes
A GOOD STAND, GROWS OFF QUICKf.T, MA
TURES TnE crop earlier and picks out
BETTER than where none is applied, and MAKES
A BETTER and HEAVIER STAPLE.
When apolied at the rate of 250 pounds per acre, it
will make two good successive crops, thus demonstra
ting its permanet qualities, which cannot be said of
Peruvian. One hundred end fifty to two hundred
pounds have always, >n average seasons, INCREAS
ED TIIE CROP ONE HUNDRED PER CENT.
Where a more liberal application has been mode, the
yield has been in proportion. This can be relied
upon only when the following direc ions are complied
wit! , although some planters have gotten the best re
suits by listing, the fame as is done with Peruvian.
DIIRECTIOH St
Rub the seed with the Guano before planting, and
use not less than 160 pounds per acre in the drill, IN
DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE SEED. The
application can be increased to 500 pounds WITH
OUT ANY RISK, with a corresponding and certain
result. Be sure the land is well drained, and the plow
ar.d hoe ketit vigorously going, to ke p down the
gras.s and give the cotton plant a chance to get the
full benefit of the manure, otherwise it must fail of
its proper result. It will give equal results on any
other crop to which it is anpiied. The manufacturers
GUARANTEE SATISFACTORY RESULTS IN
ALL CASKS if the foregoing directions are complied
with. *'
We confidently recommend this FERTILIZER to
onr friends and customers, feeling ussured from the
experience of the past two years, that It will accom
plish all that is claimed for it hy the manufacturers.
Price per ton of 3,000 pound., S7O Cash.
To re.ponßible patties desiring time, we are pre
pared to-offer the most liberal terms.
We have a large number of planters’ certificates,
and wid forward pamphlets to all whe may desire to
see them. '
We are receiving a large supply, hut as the demand
for the coming crop will be large, an early application
will best insure the prompt filii% of orders.

With the commencement of another year wo will

the people of Georgia shall demand that the State

will be conducted with the ability that in times past
commanded for it an Influence and circulation equal
to any paper in the State.
As farming is, and must continue to he, the grea

than heretofore, and hope thereby to increase oar
